Jining Science & Technology Center, China

Montag, 29. Juni 2015

The Jining Science & Technology Center is the central building of the new high-tech development area in Shandong province, reflecting a modern and sustainable approach to design. The vision of the Science Center was to create a project that represents the spirit of the high-tech industry by combining education, science, business and entertainment.

This project identity is the circle-shaped horizontal array of buildings with the consistent height of each structure and the outstand­ing seemingly continuous outer façade across each building. It represents the approach of logon-architecture to design beyond the aesthetics of the facade, but with functional implications and sustainability principles of energy-efficiency and preservation.
